Modern technology has TRANSFORMED contemporary world radically. THERE IS NO DENYING THAT Development of technology HAS  improved human lives. But has modern technology made life much better for most people? It may SEEM obvious, but when you look closer it is not.
ON A CLOSER INSPECTION THERE ARE BOTH PROS AND CONS TO ADVANCEMENT IN TECHNOLOGY
Without a doubt, technology HAS increased THE level of COMFORT life. ACCESS TO Electricity,  FRESH WATER, knowledge is literally everywhere and that is amazing. Those GOODS nowadays are common and it Is hard to imagine  there COULD not be light or a plumbing system. If people NEED INFORMATION about something they can search for it On the internet. When there is a need of buying a unique product going to the first shop is enough, beacuse of transfering products betwEen countries and this is the ADVANTAGE of developing transport.
On the other hand, the internet is A space where social media HAVE A CRUCIAL ROLE and there is nothing wrong with that, but as everybody knows, social media world is a cruel world which drips with anonymous hatered. Anonymity is A FEATURE that AMPLIFIES people's worst  instincts. There ARE plenty of examples where young girls and boys EXPERIENCED problems or even commitTED suicides beacuse of society that feels untouchable behind the keyboard and screen.
oN THE PLUS SIDE THERE are possibilities that come from social webs and internet. In modern world it is really easy to KEEP IN TOUCH WITH  others. You can meet someone even without moving from home. When siblings are away, there is a FREE AND EASY METOD of COMMUNICATING with them with THE AID of videoconversations. Development of technology can blur the borders.
Modern technology is on such an insane level that giving or taking life is AS easy as snapping  fingers. It is horrible that A single nuclear bomb can kill milions of people, but on the other HAND, it is beatiful that heart transplantATION or medicines can save other million people. There are always pros and cons, but i agree with THE sentence, that generally, modern technology has  made life much better for most people in the developed world.

Modern technology is the thing that has changed contemporary world radically. Development of technology improved human lives and that is the fact. But has modern thechnology made life much better for the most people? It may be obvious from the first sight, but when you look closer it is not.
Without a doubt, technology increased level of life. Electricity, clean water, knowledge is literally everywhere and that is amazing. Those things nowadays are normal and common and it's hard to imagine if there would not be the light or a plumbing system. If people do not know about something they can search for it in the internet. When there is a need of buying an unique product going to the first shop is enough, beacuse of transfering products beetwen countries and this is the pro of developing transport.
On the other hand, the internet is space where social medias take place and there is nothing wrong with that, but as everybody knows, social medias' world is a cruel world which drips with hatered, anonymous hatered. Anonymity is tool that emphasizes the worst people's instincts. There is plenty of examples where young girls and boys were having problems or even commiting suicides beacuse of society that feels untouchable behind the keyboard and screen.
The opposite of hate are possibilities that comes from social webs and internet. In modern world it is really easy to make contacts with the others. You can meet someone even without moving from home. When siblings are away, there is a way of having contact with them with help of videoconversations. Development of technology can blur the borders.

Contemporary celebrities are in the spotlight 24 hours a day. It may look normal AT the first sight, but everything changes DEPENDING ON THE ANGLE OF PERCEPTION. How would you feel if every step was monitored by paparazzi? So, is it true that public figures have THE right to privacy?
As everybody knows, being famous MEANS fans and money. On the other hand, it has a priCe, enormous prize. The lack of privacy thaht ?is. Many people claims that there is something for something and public figures should be aware of dangers that comes from fame. Every single mistake can cause an avalanche of problems. But as it was said before "something for something"
There is always a line that paparazzis should not cross. Family is not supposed to be the talk SUBJECT (TALKING POINT) of whole city. Unforunately it is impossible to avoid "meetings" with  spotlight. It is hard to imagine what feeling that is, going for a walk with YOUR daughter or a date with some girl and being botherED by fans and reporters. It is unfair and should not take place in common world.
In certain cases being in mainstream is the biggest curse and bless at the same time. Some celebrities do not want to go out, because of fans on every corner. Awfulness in that kind of situations is lonelIness and great longing for normality. There ARE  a lot of examples. One of the most popular rapers in Poland, Taco Hemingway, is singing in one of his songs: "Even on graveyard I am hearing: Hi Taco". This sentence perfectly shows THE problem of contemporary public figures.
In conlusion, public figures should be aware of negatives of being famous, but they have THE right to privacy LIKE every single person. They are same as us, common people, they have feelings, problems and their own life.

Reality TV is harmless entertainment                   Reality TV is A genre of television that documents real-life situations, often starring unknown people rather than professional actors. Nowadays, it has become more and more popular among adults, but also teenagers. Every time you turn on a reality TV program, someone is having a romance, getting in a fight or get kicked out of the house. Most people belive that reality shows are just to entertain people and DO NOT have any impact on viewer’s life. But is it harmless entertainment?                 Firstly, reality TV changeS the perception of what is real. Producers shoot all the time, with hundreds of cameras, but use only small amount of what they film. So they can make things look how they want by taking things out of context and re-arranging the order of events. Moreover, reality TV makes people think anyone can become a celebrity. People, especially teenagers, are always looking AT? (UP to) their environment for examples on how to behave. And if they see people behaving badly and being rewarded for it, then they ARE more likely to follow that PATTERN OF behaviour.                         On the other hand, reality TV is just another genre of television, made up as a time waster. It is filled with drama, fights and romances, thanks to which episodes are not boring OR? predictable. Furthermore we live in an age of mass culture. More people read tabloids than the broadsheets, and reality TV is a fair reflection of this.                     To conclude, reality TV has had both a positive and a negative impact on people and their world view, but my opinion is that it is more harmful than profitable. To my mind, it does not develop human reasoning, limits our PERCEPTION of the world and have a bad impact on young generation.
